‘The Well Proven Chair’

through the understanding that there is 50% to 80% of timber wastage during manufacturing, london-based designers marjan van aubel and jamie shaw have investigated ways of incorporating waste shavings into design using bio-resin. a curious chemical reaction occurs when they are mixed with the scraps, expanding it into foam. the reaction is exacerbated by different types of wood, the addition of water, air trapped in material, and increased temperatures these different factors can give expansion of up to 600-700%.
